| | |  Warner Bros to create Harry Potter multiplayer RPG
Warner Bros. is currently looking into creating a massive multiplayer role playing game (MMORPG) centered around the world of Harry Potter. Thanks to a tip from Pottersphere, we contacted Warner Bros about this endeavor. Quote:
The notion of creating a Harry Potter multi-player online role playing game is something that we've been discussing at Warner Bros. for a number of years and continue to explore.
We are currently investigating the possibility of creating our own MMORPG, but unfortunately do not have any further details to share at this time.

Well, that is interesting indeed. But it is in the beginning stages of "investigating the possibility." Ahhhh, more waiting. | |

Oh, and there are some that don't charge anything, but for some reason I doubt this would be the case here. 
Anywho, if they do plan something like this, I just hope they hire a company that knows its stuff; and maybe I'll check it out and get addicted to the internets even more. | |

They would probably charge a fee to play on it, but it sounds like fun. | |
